Man these posts are getting old. Grow up kid. If you really do own a skyline you would know how much car shit costs, you have to spend money on them from the day you buy them, you would know that.

Go to bed.

yes. and its getting hellz annoying finding 3 new threads a week with the same backwards bullshit.

if you really DO own a skyline you will know they cost you freakin money, and a fair bit of it. not neccessarily just coz of shit that goes wrong with it. but other things as well, i.e modifying.

despite magpie's outburst, im gonna have to agree with Mr. Italy - skyline owners know how much it costs to run and maintain their cars. And it aint cheap....maybe if your worried about the costs - stick to integras

if you've got one and have had it for more than 2 months you will know.

if you "just got it" how'd you have the head and shit replaced 2 months ago?

im not here to start a flame war. thats what the wasteland is for. just think before you post bullshit all over the legit sections of the forums.

kthnx

no ive had it for about a year i bought it off my cousin! i kinda considered that just getting it coz ive only had it for about a year. Its just ive had alot of shit go wrong with it and as youd probably know im only 18 and dont have the money to be spending heaps and heaps and heaps on cars. i love my skyline to death but thought mabey an integra would be a good option for now being non turboed and good on petrol till i get a good job. all i wanted to know is that is it going to keep giving me problems being a turboed car thats all coz i heard they do?

no. and if you have had it for a year you should definitely know the costs by now.... lol

im 19, had mine for a year. and i know all the costs involved already. i knew them well before buying it to. so if you cant handle the costs involved, get a different car.

In answer to the thread's question... The problem with my car is it's an auto :)

Magpies03 = I don't think anyone on the forum here gives a Sh#t whether you own a skyline or any car, The guys here are not stupid & they've caught on that you've been less than honest in your previous posts, who are you trying to impress? If you have a skyline that's great, so do I, big Whoop. If you don't then why waste your time & everyone elses making up bullsh*t?

well arnt your a tank poombah speaking on behalf of everyone on SAU. if noone cars then why does everyone keep talking in my posts. instead of sitting there like a fat shit why dont you start a constructive post of your own. mabey you should stick with the civic. it obviously suits your personality more. also my topics are no different to anyone elses. WTF IS YOU PROBLEM?

one last simple answer to that post.

no your posts are not constructive

no they are not origional, they have been asked and covered 50 thousand times

and his problem is the same as most other peoples. stop starting bullshit threads that A) have been covered a heap of times, B) if you really did own said car you'd know the f**kin answer, especially if you have had the car for a year, and C) quit making said bullshit threads in the legit sections.

      How old is too old for tyres?

      By Murray_Calavera · Posted

      If the tyres were fitted when new, I wouldn't expect much over 5 years of use. Especially if the car lives outside full time.  If the tyres had been stored under ideal conditions and are being purchased new, I'd fit a set of already 5 year old tyres if I only expected to get 1 to 2 years of use out of them.  I've purchased many a set of new (but quite old) tyres from St George Tyres when I just needed some decent rear tyres to drift on.  Here is a pretty crazy example, can't say I've ever bought 11 year old tyres from them before though lol.  https://www.stgeorgetyres.com.au/momo-tyres-245-45-17-outrun-m3-official-product-by-momo-italy.html

      Also, a tip for young players  Check the dates on new tyres before they fit them, I always ask this question at the tyre shop, as they have tried to put "new" tyres on one of my cars a few years ago, but the build date was about 3 years old

      Yeah - 4 or 5 years is the limit for decent tyres. Pedestrian grade tyres with 400 TW ratings start out hard and don't start to suffer until they are somewhat older again. But the stickier decent stuff? Nup. My current ADO9s are < 2 yrs old, 17000km in, only have about the minimum 2mm of tread depth left, and they are.....not what they used to be. They are clearly much harder now than when new. Whether that is heat cycles (unlikely, for a road tyre), different compound between top and bottom of tread, or actually aging out (in less than 2 years!!!) is not really able to be discerned. But I'd credit actual aging as being at least part of the cause. I've got an old pair of ~50% worn AD08Rs in the shed that I really need to get rid of. They started feeling waaaay too hard to put back on the car after a couple of years sitting there.

      Personally I wouldn't put tyres over 4 or 5 years old on any of my own cars. Once they go hard the grip characteristics completely change. As per most things it only matters in an accident and that's when you most want them to do their job!

      I'm replacing the front tyres on the E39 tomorrow because one of them has a few gouges out of it. There is so much tread still on them but they're also 9 years old and the rubber is super hard.  This falls within the guidelines of 10 years old that I've read which surprises me given their condition.  I'm curious about whether you guys care about tyre age or just judge the tyre based on condition? How old would you consider too old?
